Dividend Declaration: Delaware Enhanced Global Dividend and Income Fund
Announces Dividends

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 2 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Today, Delaware Enhanced Global
Dividend and Income Fund (the "Fund"), a New York Stock Exchange-listed
closed-end fund trading under the symbol "DEX," declares a monthly dividend of
$0.1025 per share. The dividend is payable November 27, 2009, to shareholders
of record at the close of business on November 13, 2009. The ex-dividend date
will be November 10, 2009.

The Fund's primary investment objective is to seek current income, with a
secondary objective of capital appreciation. The Fund invests globally in
dividend-paying or income-generating securities across multiple asset classes,
including but not limited to: equity securities of large, well-established
companies, securities issued by real estate companies (including real estate
investment trusts and real estate industry operating companies), debt
securities (such as government bonds, investment grade and high risk, high
yield corporate bonds, and convertible bonds), and emerging market securities.
The Fund also utilizes enhanced income strategies by engaging in dividend
capture trading, option overwriting, realization of gains on the sale of
securities, dividend growth, and currency forwards.

Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest: (1) at most 60% of its
net assets in securities of U.S. issuers; and (2) at least 40% of its net
assets in securities of non-U.S. issuers, unless market conditions are not
deemed favorable by the Manager, in which case, the Fund would invest at least
30% of its net assets in securities of non-U.S. issuers. In addition, the Fund
utilizes leveraging techniques in an attempt to obtain higher return for the
Fund. There is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment
objectives.

The Fund has implemented a managed distribution policy. Under the policy, the
Fund is managed with a goal of generating as much of the distribution as
possible from net investment income and short-term capital gains. The balance
of the distribution will then come from long-term capital gains to the extent
permitted and, if necessary, a return of capital.
